can't sleep thinking too much?

Jul 01, 2009

I can't sleep thinking about what they are going to tell me tomorrow...I'm trying to leave this up to God, but my mind is spinning...My mind has been flooding with reasons why they would deny me, after this new change made July 1st. Then I fingered through all my documents and came across the mental health evaluation I never read, but assumed I passed because the surgeon decided to go ahead. Take in mind I’ve never met this guy, and I sat down and talked with him for 30 minutes! Patient is describing a poor diet that does not appear to be in compliance with her diabetes or the recommendations from the dietitian for helping her pending gastric bypass clearance. I am concerned about the patient not controlling her diabetes and also her ability to adhere to the dietary recommendation pre-and post surgery. There is no psychiatric contradiction for the patient to have the procedure but as mentioned above I am concerned about her ability to follow the recommendations. Will leave it up to the surgeon rather or not he wants to proceed with the surgery. But recommended that she show a significant period of time adhering to the proper diet prior to surgery.- He asked me what my diet was and I didn’t lie. I told him I ate pizza and  the occasional candy bar, then he quoted me saying that I eat “ whatever is close”  Excuse me for not lying and saying I don't fall into temptation I'm human. If this idiot has caused me to not get approved for this surgery I’m giving this guy a piece of  mind.
